My name is Wally Cleaver in TN - Silly & Adores Attention!!

Sweet, silly Wally Cleaver is hoping to be your velcro dog! He came out of a hoarding situation in Alabama with his parents, littermates and another litter. Wally is super affectionate boy, seeking out love where he can find it. Wally is housebroken, crate trained, and working hard on learning his leash walking skills and basic commands. He is always happy to see his people and loves to be hugged, and, in fact, is quite insistent that you love on him! He is great with other dogs and loves being silly and playing with his brother. He would love to have a playmate but would also do fine as an only dog. Wally hopes to have an active family willing to work on his manners, and shower him with love and affection!

NYS Registered Rescue # RR102

Our goal is to assess every application on its own merits. Key considerations are: 1) the experience of the applicant with large breed dogs 2) children in the household or regularly visiting the household are ready for a large-breed dog who is a guardian by nature and 3) the sex of other dogs currently residing in the household to avoid same-sex aggression issues. For puppies under six months old, the applicant’s ability to socialize the puppy with older dogs is a priority.
